Bigger, bolder, and louder than ever before, neo‑manga artist Yokoyama Yuichi is back in English with PLAZA! Inspired by Carnaval in Brazil, PLAZA offers a maniacal extravaganza of marching, dancing, leaping, firing, cheering, smashing, and exploding over the course of 225 eye‑and‑eardrum‑confounding pages. Originally published in Japan in 2019, this oversize English edition of PLAZA brings to full, hyper‑animated life the spectacular graphic art of this genre‑defying work of avant‑garde comics.
